Almost nothing. Have not that much money to spend right now so I'll just stay at home this weekend. Thankfully this situation won't last. I hate being broke. <- Went to the gym a couple of times and helped a friend move. Other than that only played WoW and watched movies/shows. Was a quite but still enjoyable weekend.

WoW:

- Since I (finally) got the Eye of Sulfuras on my Warrior I better collect the last missing incredients for the hammer. 41 Arcanite Crystals and 1 Blood of the Mountain to go. <- Got the Blood and am up to 41 Crystals now. Maybe I'll get the last 9 tonight.- Collect some more pets. Sitting at 354 right now. <- 361 now. Not as much progress as I hoped.- Make more gold. Haven't fully recovered from the unfortunate scam I posted about a short while back. <- Made a few thousand gold and am up to 41k. But still need moar.- Maybe kill Elegon HC on Sunday. We're sitting at 3/16 HC now and it would be sweet to kill one more boss before the patch hits. <- As can been seen in my other thread we didn't kill him. But we are finished with most other bosses so we have all Tuesday to work on him. If anyone has valuable input for Elegon HC please help me out here.- Finish some achievements. My goal was to both have at least 80% of all achievements done before 5.2 and to have at least 80% of all achievement points before 5.2. The former I have done but I'm not sure I can fulfill my second goal. Still 106 points missing so I'd have to get 110 points before next Wednesday. We'll see... :) <- Yes!

Other games: Got a good way through ME2 on my Insanity Fem-Shep Sentinel Renegade run. Only have Tali and Legion left to recruit; working on LotSB right now (pretty awesome mission, and you get some good upgrades out of it). Loyalty missions done for about 60% of the crew; still have Garrus, Thane, Jack, and Samara left. Despite being Renegade I've been made pretty much all "good" choices when it comes to big events. I just don't have it in me to be bad.

RL: Got myself a girlfriend! Well, started dating an ex. We decided to make it official; RIP bachelorhood. Had a great weekend with lots of delicious food; spent most of Saturday at the Renaissance Festival.

RL - was a pretty usual weekend, baby shower and clean-up and organizing took all of my saturday (literally from 8:30 am till 12:30am). Friday saw Dark Skies, while not scary and not truly original, was still an enjoyable movie. Sunday just cleaned and played a little WoW.

WoW - did not get to play much at all, still need 210 valor to cap, did get exalted with flying serpeant and about 7k rep away fom revered with Shieldwall, only leaves dark prince and lorewalkers left to complete. Gained a level on my priest and made a couple thousand gold, got the guild to about 3% from level 3.

Weekday - will try to valor cap today, but will be a challenge. Will try to hit revered with shieldwall and may start grinding towards revered with black prince. Have not figured out where the dailies are and not very useful internet sites to find them, so will just grind it for gold/cloth. Started a DK for grins and giggles, it seems every character I make gets to a certain level that my wife has a character at and I cant play it until I play it with her .... so have to keep making new characters /sigh

Gaming: I tried playing some TERA and MoP, neither are sold for me--almost certainly won't be pursuing either. I did get around to unlocking some things in TOR with credits and my complimentary cartel coins. I'll eventually get around to actually finishing my Jedi Knight story, at least. Played Rift last night, got a Battlebard up to level 11 or so. It's fun, but I'm not sure it's for me. I really like the talent system, but I have no clue if it's something I'd bother actually playing. So far, my quest for a new MMO is looking bleak. Eventually I'll get the urge to play GW2 again, at least. That, or eventually Wildstar will come out.

RL: Glorious nothing. I mostly just read. Finished Fellowship of the Ring, will be moving on to Two Towers today. Need to do some prep work for some meetings this week.

Nah, it's kind of a first for me; I've never dated an ex-girlfriend before after we've broken up. We dbroke up... oh, 2 years ago? A year and a half? It was due to a lot of small issues, nothing huge. In that time we've both matured a lot, and before we got back into a relationship again we sat down, talked out why we broke up before, and what problems we may have coming up. I feel pretty confident about the situation. We've stayed as friends since we broke up, but lately it's been that sorta awkward in-between phase. Good to finally have some firm footing about the situation.

In other news, I am in love with my slow cooker. I made us Swiss Beef Stew on Friday, and Polska Kielbasa with Beer n' Onions on Sunday. I think she fell for my cooking skills [:nod:

WoW - nada. Didn't log on once. :-( The I don't really care to grind this, that, or the other thing feelings are getting pretty strong.

Other games - messing with Minecraft, nothing to industrious to report there.

RL - pretty chill. A little bit of birthday stuff, mmm lasagna. Watched Terminator for the umpteenth time. Still a great movie. Watched the Red Wings choke against the Blackhawks, bah! Lost in my own game as well. We hung tight for two periods, but fell apart in the third. Meh!

Game mixed w/RL: The usual dailies, working on profs, faire stuff. Not sure I'll be on tomorrow at all, since I've been told we have shopping to do. Not a clue. The thought of doing absolutely nothing has a certain attraction.

Gametime was short-lived, worked on Faire monthlies with a few alts, but tried the 'doing absolutely nothing' thing. Worked out pretty well, but I laid on the sofa playing Final Fantasy: Dimensions on my ipad. I didn't think it was precisely nothing, but my girl sure did. The shopping thing on Saturday turned out to be a Costco stocking-up run. We now have enough paper products to carry us through any snowstorm for a year or so...and turns out we're getting one tonite.

OK, since somebody managed to res the summary from a couple of weeks ago to post "..." I'm going to bump the correct one just in case we have folks posting late. [Yeah, it's Thursday evening here but ... I can be hopeful?]
